Question

__________________ send signals from muscle to the brain regarding the degree of tension that is being placed on the tendons during muscle contraction.

Answer 1

Golgi tendon inhibition.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Golgi Tendon Organ is located within the tendons present on each side of a muscle. It is a proprioceptive receptor that responds to increase muscle contraction as exerted on the tendon. It takes place by inhibiting muscle contraction further.

Thus, the correct answer is Golgi tendon inhibition.
